Déversion De La Raye
The balancing of incoming and outgoing water allows the Canal du Midi to operate as it does. Each time a lock operates, large quantities of water are either required to fill it or dump from it into the lower level pound. There must be a constant source of water in order to fill and the excess water dumped must have a place to exit the canal without it overflowing. Being able to provide this water source was one of the most important problems to be solved by Pierre Paul Riquet, its creator. In the canal's original configuration of 1687, water was provided by the Rigole de la plaine from the River Sor and from the Bassin de Saint-Ferréol. The Bassin de Lampy was added later. Since the drought of 1989-1990, water can also be made available from the Lac de Montbel. Water leaving the canal between locks, will exit through either a weir (french: déversoir) or a siphon (french: Épanchoir). Leaving through the weir, the water simply flows over the side of the canal via a s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
